The TaskEnity method "deleteIdentityLiink" does not remove existing IdentityLinks.

I want to clear out any existing IdentityLink then add my Candidate Groups.  But when I use the "deleteIdentityLink" method to clear out all IdentityLink, then retrieving the list of Candidates, they are still there.

The ACT_RU_IDENTITYLINK table indicates that the specified IdentityLinks were not removed.

Below is a snippet of code.  Any suggestions?

    java.util.Set<IdentityLink> Candidates = task.getCandidates();

    for (IdentityLink temp: Candidates) {
      task.deleteIdentityLink(temp.getUserId(), temp.getGroupId(), temp.getType());
    }

    Candidates = task.getCandidates();

    task.addCandidateGroup("testGroup1");
    task.addCandidateGroup("testGroup2");

    Candidates = task.getCandidates();
